Default Secret Santa

This has been a wonderful Christmas in the sense that I really sat back and reflected on what the season is really all about. I suppose all the stuff I have gone through over the last few months (two surgeries and almost losing my dad and husband) have been life changing experiences. I've enjoyed my family so much this season and know that I have been truly blessed.

To top off the day, I just checked my email and saw where a DD Secret Santa sent me a gift card for Christmas. Another blessing which I feel undeserving. But--I'm gonna have fun shopping!!

DD has been my home for four years now and I am so thankful for all of you. I pray your holiday season has been filled with joy.

I'm hoping to have more time to hang out here and scrap some toward the end of January. In the meantime, know that I think of you often and am blessed by your friendship.

Wishing you smiles and light in 2012. Those 'almost' reminders do help us see what's really important don't they.
